(Kimberly A. Bautista)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Padre Ballers defeated Mawati, 83-74, to take the third place honors in the 2019 One Pacific Promotional Basketball League last Wednesday at the Civic Center Court.<\/p>\n<p>Pardz, which was beaten by Tsingtao Boyz in the semis, 102-98, this time came out the winner in the consolation match against Mawati after building enough lead in the first three quarters.<\/p>\n<p>In the opening canto, Lucky Jose and Ronald Bernardo\u2019s scored 6 points apiece to lift Pardz to a 23-14 advantage. Ronald Romo and Joseph Galulu also helped out Pardz\u2019s cause after combining for 8 markers.<\/p>\n<p>Pardz padded its lead in the second period, 46-37, as it continued to draw baskets from every player it fielded in the game. Joseph Torres made 7 points, while Romo and Joel Saplan chipped in 4 each, as Pardz drilled three triples against none from Mawati.<\/p>\n<p>Jose, who was scoreless in the second period, came back in the third and registered 7 points, helping Pardz keep the double-digit lead, 64-49, going into the fourth quartet. <\/p>\n<p>Down by 15, Mawati tried to pick up the slack in the fourth quarter with Jerome Reyes and John Rena stepping up, but the team just managed to move within 4 points midway through the final canto. Pardz, on the other hand, gained more cushion, as it continued to play a balance offense with seven different players lighting up the board in the last frame.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the one-game finals between Tsingtao Boyz and Connie\u2019s BBQ will be played this Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>Pardz Ballers 83\u2014Jose 15, Romo 13, Torres 12, Bernardo 11, Santos 9, Ritual 8, Sablan 4, Mababa 4, Galulu 4, Ebuen 2.<br \/>\nMawati 74\u2014Ferrer 18, Directo 14, Reyes 13, Rena 9, Nonato 8, Gontar 6, Velasco 6.<br \/>\nScoring by quarters: 23-14, 46-25, 64-49, 83-74. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Padre Ballers defeated Mawati, 83-74, to take the third place honors in the 2019 One&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":309043,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-310741","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/310741","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=310741"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/310741\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/309043"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=310741"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=310741"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=310741"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
